He said it took firefighters about 20 minutes to have it under control. No injuries were reported, but some of the family's pets did not make it. Dunham said the family had about 10 pets in the home at the time, but he did not have an exact number on how many died.

The cause of the fire was deemed electrical in a tweet by Northern York County Regional Police.

Dunham estimated the damage at around $150,000.

"There's extensive smoke damage throughout the entire house," he said.

The Red Cross is assisting the family.

Smoke from porch: About 3 p.m., fire crews could be seen fighting the blaze at the home. Smoke was billowing from the back porch and the left side of the home.

Firefighters from West Manchester Township, West York, North Codorus Township and Thomasville were among the departments assisting Nashville with the blaze.

Once the fire was handled, firefighters were seen clearing up the remainder of the house. Some of the family's Christmas presents made it out of the blaze OK. Crews were placing the unharmed presents by the front door.

Fire officials left the scene shortly after 5 p.m.

Raudebaugh was grateful that no one was hurt during the fire.

"You can replace a house, you can't replace people, family," she said.
